This year marks the occasion of the 6th
Miyazaki International Music Festival. With
the support and cooperation of many people
it has become a feature of spring in Miyazaki
since it was first held in 1996.
Star performers at this year's festival
include Isaac Stern, acclaimed as one of
the world's greatest violinists; Karl Leister,
first solo clarinettist with the Berlin Philharmonic
for over 30 years; Pinchas Zukerman, a violinist
renowned for his superb technique and rich
timbre; Dang Thai Son, the Vietnam-born international
pianist known for his lyrical playing and
spirited rhythms; and pianist Joseph Kalichstein,
impressive for both his technique and passion.
Audiences will be treated to the finest classical
music at performances held at the Miyazaki
Prefectural Arts Center Concert Hall and
other venues.
We hope that during your relaxing time
in the resort city of Miyazaki you will enjoy
the finest music made by these world class
musicians.
This year marks the beginning of the 21st
century. The Miyazaki International Music
Festival is a first step into a new century
of music for the whole world to hear.
